12. No, lying to them is NOT helpful; it's dishonest and fraudulent.

With gun violence growing, it's difficult everywhere to be safe and secure in the USA! Another issue of national importance!

The problems are all connected and related to the selfishness, greed, corruption, disrespect and willful apathy among American citizens who have decided to not participate or participate in unlawful/unhealthy ways. I'm convinced I see those qualities most in the GOP and among various supposedly Christian/Religious organizations, and the richest, whitest, wealthiest citizens, even despite possible opportunities of philantropy, not to mention the organizations and individuals that fall within our three branches of government. No, humans are not perfect, neither am I; but our judges and law enforcers aren't without biases that stilt their judgments as too harsh or, almost worse, too lenient. I think we've all had at one time or another unrealistic expectations; it is no reason not to hold accountable those that continually lie, cheat, steal, and take away human potential with assaults and murders against individuals and organizations. And sometimes, que sera, sera, is a wise choice! I don't see any redeemable personal qualities in TFG, a cult leader, for instance.
